abstract |
A reconstituted human antibody against human interleukin-8 (IL-8), comprising (A) L chains comprising: (1) the human L-chain C region, and (2) the L-chain V region containing the human L-chain FR and the L-chain CDR of a mouse monoclonal antibody against IL-8; and (B) H chains comprising: (1) the human H-chain C region, and (2) the H-chain V region containing the human H-chain FR and and the H-chain CDR of a mouse monoclonal antibody against IL-8. As the major part of the reconstituted antibody derives from a human antibody and antigenicity of the CDR is low, this antibody has a low antigenicity against the human body, thus being expected to be applicable for medical therapy. |
